What next after TikTok? "De-Chinafying" a software company is hard enough, but what about a hardware company like DJI?
I give 4 options for that (only 2 make sense) in my piece at @BW, informed by conversations with the ex-Microsoft guys at @rockpilevc

As a long-time @stratechery reader, it was a strange but awesome treat to hear @benthompson in the flesh! Aggregation theory never resonated so clearly.
Spent my Saturday morning at #GCEC2018 discussing student-run VC models. Great to see the growing interest in supporting and funding university entrepreneurs with their peers leading the charge. @ContraryCapital
We are thrilled to announce with @AppleEdu that #MinecraftEdu is coming to iPad this Fall! Prepare to immerse your students in learning, build creative worlds and bring STEM to life on iPad. Learn more in this @MicrosoftEdu#BacktoSchool blog: https://t.co/WJXq88hapu
Exciting day for @ContraryCapital and university entrepreneurship. If you’re a student (or a recent grad) building something special, get in touch. https://t.co/yOSo8GAnwc
Grateful as we officially announce the close of Fund I, backed by founding members from @facebook, @Tesla, @reddit, and so many others.

Encouraging to hear @JinSooDHuh share how @Distinctive_Edu is introducing multi-age classrooms with competency-based progression. Awesome mix of personalized learning, flexible spaces, and formative assessment.
No photos or posts allowed during today’s @BarackObama session, so enjoy this view of the stage! If you’re in Boston for @SloanSportsConf, come say hi. #SSAC18
Good read from @ryancraiguv on GenZ aversion to college debt, need for last-mile support, and reinvigoration of apprenticeship pipeline. I anticipate adoption of Income Share Agreements and skill-based #HigherEd alternatives will improve outcomes for both students and employers. https://t.co/spYZB020kS
Personalized learning tools are improving, but if Ss aren’t engaged and Ts aren’t supported throughout implementation, even the best #EdTech won’t move the needle in classrooms. Good dialogue with leaders from @LeapInChicago@ThinkCERCA@eSparkLearning and @ChiPubSchools.
Announcing the Chemistry Update for #MinecraftEdu! New crafting tables in a virtual science lab, plus tutorials and a downloadable world. https://t.co/nsobymEn3z #STEM#Bett2018#MicrosoftEdu
